Cyprus Beach Travel Tips

By Matt Link

June through September constitute the warm beach months, with the majority of tourists descending in August, when prices soar. With kids on summer break, some beaches can get rowdy. The rainy months are November to March.
The western peninsula has secluded coves, while the east offers most of the lively beach resorts.
The gorgeous beach area of Agia Napa has crystal-clear, shallow waters and powdery, white sand, and is thus one of the most popular beach destinations on the island.
To explore Cyprus's beaches, rental cars are fairly inexpensive. Don't forget to drive on the left-hand side of the road! Another low-cost option is to take the "dolmus" or "kombos" shared taxis.

Beach Overview: Cyprus

By Matt Link

It's no wonder millions of tourists descend on this slice of Mediterranean paradise every year, with its Gothic castles, ancient monasteries, walled cities, traditional villages, miles of wild trekking, and of course flawless beaches and mild weather. And even in the non-beach months of January to March, you can ski Mount Olympus, one of Europe's most southerly ski resorts. Cyprus also attracts scuba divers to its underwater wonders, including the famous wreck of Zenobia off the southern coast, while kiteboarders make a beeline to Paramali Beach in the Limassol district.
